This plea was allowed by the top court.<\/p>\n<p>The apex court had earlier asked COA chief Vinod Rai to file an affidavit specifying how the ongoing tender process was better than the e-auction.<\/p>\n<p>The Supreme Court had on July 28 sought the response of BCCI on Swamy&#8217;s plea that e-auction of the media rights should be done to ensure transparency as the rights are to be given for the next five years.<\/p>\n<p>The apex court had last month told the BJP leader that it would think over his plea to accord urgent hearing in the case after Swamy referred to the apex court verdicts to buttress his point that it has been held that auctioning was the best method of awarding contracts.<\/p>\n<p>He had said that the amount involved in the award of IPL media rights was to the tune of Rs 30,000 crore and the issue should not be decided in an &#8220;opaque&#8221; manner.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This petition prays that the distribution of IPL rights, which is scheduled on July 17, 2017 should be done in the most transparent mode available, that is via E-Auction,&#8221; his petition had said.<\/p>\n<p>It had alleged that all the activities of Board of Cricket Control in India (BCCI) were undertaken with &#8220;tacit concurrence&#8221; of the state governments and the Centre &#8220;who are not only fully aware but supportive of the activities of the Board.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It is a requirement that non-discriminatory and transparent method with the best international practices must be adopted for distribution of the valuable media rights so as to ensure the maximum revenue in the larger national interest,&#8221; Swamy&#8217;s plea had said.<\/p>\n<p>He had alleged that there was a consistent attempt by vested interests to try and build a monopoly by getting the valuable rights in a non-transparent manner.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Huge money is involved amounting to Rs 25000 30000 crore in the valuable rights associated with the game of cricket in India which makes it mandatory to have the auction process robust, completely transparent, in order to maximise revenue and prevent vested interests from making undue gains,&#8221; Swamy had claimed.<\/p>\n<p>( Source &#8211; PTI )<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Supreme Court today refused to direct the BCCI to conduct e-auctioning for awarding media rights relating to the Indian Premier League matches.
